A 20 ft container offers an internal length of approximately 5.9 meters, a width of 2.35 meters, and a height of 2.39 meters. Its maximum carrying capacity is 28,180 kg. Artway Logistics recommends this container especially for small volume but heavy loads.

A 40 ft container has a volume of 67 m³, while a 45 ft high cube container offers a larger capacity of 85.7 m³. Additionally, the 45 ft high cube is ideal for bulky cargo due to its increased internal height. Artway Logistics plans the most suitable container for your cargo by considering this difference.

Container door openings directly affect the loading and unloading processes. For example, while the door width is 2340 mm for all models, the height varies between 2280 mm (standard) and 2585 mm (high cube). Artway Logistics ensures smooth shipments by carefully considering these details.

Choosing a container that doesn’t fit your cargo leads to wasted space and unnecessary shipping expenses. Artway Logistics analyzes your load to optimize costs with the right container size.

In international shipping, 20 ft and 40 ft general-purpose containers are the most commonly used. However, for larger volume goods, 45 ft high cube containers are preferred. Artway Logistics provides the best solution for each shipment in accordance with Incoterms 2020 rules.
